The Bell FLRAA teamseeksthe top engineering talents from around the industry to design, develop, and deliver the world’s next-generation military aircraft.
Core Avionics Integrated Product Team (IPT), FLRAA Aircraft Network Architect - Staff
Engineer Within the FLRAA Core Avionics IPT,
the Network Architecture Staff Engineer is responsible for design and integration of hardware and software
making up the platform Digital Backbone network. The Network Architect Staff Engineer is also responsible for development and maturing the technology to ensure the systems meets maturity and capabilities for the aircraft platform. This requires coordination between multiple suppliers, US government and standard committees. Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) is an avionics system architecture that replaces multiple, separate processors and line replaceable units (LRUs) with fewer, more centralized processing units. This approach leads to weight reduction and cost savings, making it a popular choice in modern aircraft, including FLRAA. What You Will Be Doing as FLRAA Aircraft Network Architect - Staff
